Barrel Depot is a small Minnesotan company that is working towards an eco-friendly environment. We salvage young, good condition, used wine barrels to reuse, convert them into rain barrels and repurpose.
The barrels are constructed from solid American or French Oak. Many of the barrels we aquire can still be used for wine making. Some people even choose to make beer or tequila in our barrels!
The primary use for our barrels is to create eco-friendly rain barrels. Each rain barrel is made with premium components that allows for use year after year. The brass spigot with hose connection allows for direct watering and the over-flow valve prevents back up. The mesh screen prevents debris from getting into the barrel. Multiple barrels can also be connected to each other.
At Barrel Depot we recognize that conservation is key. Collecting rainwater creates a multitude of benefits. Some of those benefits include:
-Reduces Water Runoff
Less water goes into the sewer system, lakes and streams. This is important, in order to help to prevent erosion.
-Allows watering during water restrictions
-Reduces water Bills
The amount of rainwater collected after one year can save you the cost of the barrel and more!
-Enhances Plant Growth
Rainwater is naturally soft water. It does not have added minerals, chlorine or any other unnecessary added chemicals. Plants watered with rain water tend to flourish and respond better!
Be part of the solution to taking care of our environment!
